Comet C/2013US10 Catalina

As from last week till end of february we can observe the Comet C/2013 US10 Catalina. Not a bright comet (magnitured 5à6) but hopefully bright enough to observe with the naked eye. Best timing is around jan 15, 2016 as the comet is closest to the earth. For more information see Comet C/2013 US10 Catalina
